If you are trying to bring this TV into Belize, you might want to check out the import taxes. A good friend of mine is moving to Costa Rica to start a bed and breakfast fishing place and the taxes for electronics are EXTREME! Hopefully for you (if you are going there) the Belizians are more mild!

Just for the hell of it I went to my local Best Buy yesterday (after dumping the wife and mother-in-law off at Marshals) and looked at all the offerings, since I'm considering a new TV too.

The Sony looked very good to me... but everyone seems to look for different things in TV's - just like everyone seems to like different things in the audio system. Go check them out in person and see what you like best - this is very important when it comes to sizing too.

I was considering a 60" - but when I "get real" and consider how close my couch is to where my TV is going to be I think it's a bit much. To my eye a 55" is a better fit.

To those with a 70" - unless you are about 30' away it would be way overwhelming to me - and be reminiscent of sitting on the front row of a movie theater like when I was 12 and trying to get to first base with Kelly Davis - but I digress....

My point is.... everyone likes different things so go check them out for yourself!

PS - Yes I got to first base with Kelly - then she dumped me... and then I got to 2nd base with her best friend Shannon!
